SPECIAL FEATURES

INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE

FUSED CRYSTAL CLEAR™ QUARTZ SLEEVE Ensures optimum lamp output at normal potable water temperatures. (See interior detail page 3.)

The purifier is installed horizontally as close as possible to the point of use. Connection of the inlet and outlet to water supply and insertion of power plug into 3-wire grounded GFCI outlet is all that is required. Ordinary maintenance consists of routine cleaning of the quartz sleeve once monthly or more frequently where conditions dictate. Lamp replacement is recommended every 10,000 hours of operation (approximately 14 months of continuous service).

The STERALERT™ Lamp Status Alarm monitors visible light emitted through the sight port plug of the water purifier and activates an audible alarm when visible light falls below acceptable levels.

• Easy installation, no tools required• Mounts on the sight port plug• Operates on a 9v battery• Monitors the visible light emitted by the

ultraviolet lamp (does not monitor the ultraviolet intensity)

• Produces a high frequency tone, pulsed at two to three cycles per second

• Warns of lamp or power failure• Available with Remote Sounder• Available with Dry Contact for

Connection to PLC• Optional 120v 60Hz Power

Adapter available

• Available for use with all MIGHTY«PURE® and SANITRON® models

The SENTRY™ Safety Sensor provides constant monitoring of the water purifier’s ballast and germicidal lamp operation to give an indication of ballast and germicidal lamp status. The SENTRY™ Safety Sensor is capable of operating an optional audio alarm and/or solenoid valve.

• Easy installation• Plug SENTRY™ into an electrical outlet,

then plug water purifier into SENTRY™• Operates optional Solenoid Valve and/or

Audio Alarm• Easily adaptable for use with other water

purifier brands

• Warns of lamp failure• Available for 120v 50/60Hz or 220v

50/60Hz (water purifiers operating with electronic ballasts)

• Available for use with most Bio-Logic®, MINIPURE®, MIGHTY«PURE® and SANITRON® models

The GUARDIAN™ Ultraviolet Monitor visually indicates the level of germicidal ultraviolet energy that penetrates the quartz sleeve and the water within the disinfection chamber. The GUARDIAN™ Ultraviolet Monitor is capable of operating an optional Audio Alarm and Solenoid Valve. In addition, the GUARDIAN™ Ultraviolet Monitor will detect loss of ultraviolet due to lamp outage, component or power failure. Use of the Ultraviolet Monitor is recommended by the US Public Health Service “Criteria for the Acceptability of an Ultraviolet Disinfection Unit.”

The GUARDIAN™ Ultraviolet Monitor will detect reduction of ultraviolet levels due to:

• Fouling or deposits on quartz sleeve. • Poor ultraviolet transmission through the

water. (Color, turbidity, organic or other impurities in the water can reduce or interfere with the transmission of ultraviolet rays.)

• Depreciation of lamp output due to usage or other cause. Lamp output gradually depreciates with use.

• Lamp replacement is recommended once each year.

The GUARDIAN™ Ultraviolet Monitor has three models; Analog, Digital and Digital Remote. Voltage Configurations include 120V 50/60Hz, 220-240V 50/60 Hz, or 12VDC. Contact factory for special requirements. NOTE: GUARDIAN™ Ultraviolet Monitor (analog, digital or digital remote) can be purchased and installed with the water purifier or at a later date for an existing installation.

The GUARDIANTM Ultraviolet Analog and Digital Monitors are mounted directly onto the water purifier. The sensor probe (included) is threaded into the sight port fitting of the ultraviolet water purifier. The aluminum collar on the bottom of the GUARDIAN™ Ultraviolet Analog or Digital Monitor is secured over the sensor probe.

The GUARDIAN™ Ultraviolet Digital Remote Monitor is intended for use in a location away from the water purifier that is being monitored. In all other respects, the remote GUARDIAN™ behaves the same as the standard GUARDIAN™. Mounted on the back of the remote monitor is a socket into which the lead from an ultraviolet sensor is connected. Instead of being mounted inside the monitor housing, this sensor is contained within the remote probe. A standard length for the connecting cable supplied with the probe is 50 ft., but the lead length may be extended if desired. Please contact the factory for additional lengths.

Available for use with all MIGHTY«PURE® and SANITRON® models.

GENUINE STER-L-RAY ® GERMICIDAL LAMPS

STER-L-RAY ® Germicidal Lamps are shortwave, low pressure mercury vapor discharge tubes that produce ultraviolet wavelengths lethal to microorganisms.

STER-L-RAY ® Germicidal Lamps are well-suited to applications requiring high ultraviolet intensity such as water purification.

STER-L-RAY ® Instant Start Germicidal Lamps utilize a coil filament on each end which operates hot. Lamp life is governed by the life of the electrodes and is affected by the frequency of starting.

STER-L-RAY ® Preheat Germicidal Lamps are operated by a preheat-start circuit that employs a compact and economical ballast. The preheat circuit requires four electrical connections per lamp and a slight to moderate delay is needed to start the lamp.

STER-L-RAY ® and the STER-L-RAY ® logo are trademarks of Atlantic Ultraviolet Corporation®.

CAUTION: Exposure to direct or reflected germicidal ultraviolet rays will cause painful eye irritation and reddening of the skin. Personnel subject to such exposure must wear suitable faceshield, gloves and protective clothing. Hg - LAMP CONTAINS MERCURY, manage in accord with disposal laws, see: LampRecycle.org.

APPLICATIONS FOR ULTRAVIOLET WATER PURIFICATIONS

The unique advantage of UV purification is that nothing is added to the water. When chemical methods of treatment are used, there may be handling problems, taste and odor problems, and undesirable chemical reactions with substances present in the water.

This difference is most significant when producing water for:

• Drinking or swimming• Processing foods and bottled beverages• Manufacturing cosmetics or pharmaceuticals• Hospitals and research institutions• Tertiary treatment of municipal or industrial wastewater

The Versatility of UV Purification

UV purification provides germ-free potable water for home, institutional and municipal use, as in the following applications.

• Water wells: bacterial contamination of wells is unpredictable and may occur from seepage of surface water or sewage.

• The outlet side of water cisterns: most cisterns foster the proliferation of bacteria in untreated water.

• Swimming pools: to control bacteria, algae and slime formation. It avoids the undesirable effects of heavily chlorinated swimming pool water by allowing substantial reduction of the use of chlorine.

UV purification provides bacteria-free food process water without the use of germicides, oxidants, algaecides or chemical precipitants; particularly useful in the following applications where chlorine adversely affects flavor.

• Brewery, winery, soft drink, and water bottling industries: where biological purity of the water must be absolutely maintained in order to ensure product quality.

• Dairy products: for safeguarding against spoilage of cottage cheese and butter; certain psycrophilic bacteria are resistant to chlorine treatment.

• Sterile washwater: to guard against waterborne bacteria spoilage where vegetable, fruits, meats, fish and other products must be washed in water before packaging.

UV purification is particularly useful in the following applications where chlorine-free, de-ionized and/or carbon filtered water are extensively employed. Unattended carbon filters and ion-exchange tanks act as incubators for bacteria accumulation.

• Electronics: in conjunction with de-ionized and high purity water systems.

• Pharmaceuticals and cosmetics: strict water treatment standards are necessary for strict maintenance of product’s quality control.

• Biological laboratories: sterile water is required for testing and research work.

• Hospitals: provides ultra-pure water on demand for maternity labor and delivery areas, pathology labs, etc.

In industrial pollution control, UV purification affords an excellent end-treatment.

• Wastewater control systems: for selective use as a tertiary treatment for bacteria de-struction after removal of chemicals and other objectionable ingredients.
